Once one of the finest hotels west of the Mississippi, the Davenport Hotel laid under the threat of demolition until purchased by local developer Walt Worthy.
Mills Painting performed work restoring the lobby to it’s original grandeur as well as exterior restoration and waterproofing during 2001 – 2002. Among the decorative techniques employed was gilding, gold leafing and wood graining on the plaster relief work as well as extensive marbleizing.

Mills Painting is proud to have been an integral part of this historic Spokane restoration project!
